Although I suppose it's great that the game is so much more family-friendly these days, I do miss a good on-pitch dust up. The one between Arsenal and Man Utd in 91 was great. Different game nowadays. Remember when Des Walker nutted Simon Milton in 94? He got a two game ban and fined two weeks wages. He'd get ten games for that now.

Only ever recall Matthews playing ONCE in Sheffield. Seemed to be notorious for his absence. However, I remember his first meeting with Curtis. When he came onto the field (those days - no warm up sessions or players coming out together. Wednesday always seemed to be first up the tunnel) Curtis immediately took up position on Matthews' shoulder, a position he held all match. As soon as the ball was played to Matthews, Norman was in with a slide tackle. He never allowed him time to control the ball, and was only penalised twice during the game. He completely shut Stanley out of the game. I think that had SM gone off for a s***e, he would have found Norman alongside him. Unfortunately, this man-marking allowed a certain Len Duquemin to run riot at inside right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salmonbones Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 In my lifetime of watching (91) I suppose it would have to be Pearson. I've tried to come up with others, but in truth the guy had several broken legs, put his head where it hurt when it was needed and was a bit of a pyscho. We could do with him now.
